I got a skimmer, I got a skimmer! A vertex Alpha 170! More then I need I think but should be great. Now looking for an apex and a gyre power head and return pump 1000 GPH.

I bought a new sicce 5 for a return pump. Not sure if I going to keep it as I ran it in the bath tub for a few minutes and thought it was a bit loud. Does anybody have any experience with this?

Got a line on an Apex system now. So most of the main components are covered. Still would like to find a gyre.

Talking

Picked up the Apex. Just have to learn how to use it! Seems like it will help make my tank a little easier to manage. I am thinking of getting the Apex automatic feeder, as I am away a lot.

So I broke down and call J & L aquatics yesterday to see if they have a ship date on my tank....They said they are still hoping for the end of April. A little more patience is needed it seems.

Don't worry about it. Waiting is all part of the process. You wait for the tank. You wait for the cycle and then to finish the cycle. You wait for your fish. You wait for your coral. Your tank is full. Now you wait for it to grow or something bad happens and the waiting starts again. Lots of waiting in this hobby. Relax. Have a drink. Enjoy the wait.
